This is like the 10th time ive been randomly browsing different things about bass fishing and, Voila!, a picture of Fish Chris pops up, of course, holding a 18lb. hippo-bass hybrid in his lap.

Yea, he's on a t-shirt somewhere.

Yea' ! A legend in my own mind ;-) LOL

Seriously though, believe it or not, that fish was only 14.2. It just had this really deep, fairly long frame (about 28" I believe) which photographed really well. I think she could have been 2 to 3 lbs heavier, had she been thicker from side to side, but still a nice, healthy fish.

BTW, she hit the old 9" Castaic trout, while coming straight at me. I just felt the slightest of taps, then my lure quit kicking. It took several fast cranks to catch up with her, but when I finally swung, she instantly came straight out of the water, with her mouth wide open, and again, because of that frame shape, I thought I had a 17 lb'er ! A very cool memory :-)

Peace,

fish

"that fish was only 14.2."

Pleeeze...

Only Fish Chris could get away with the phrase "Only 14.2" Holy carp. I would scream if I had a 14.2lb bass

I guess that's another great benefit to only fishing for Grandmama's, is that you can remember every one, in detail.

"Only" 14.2 .... that 's funny !  ;D

REALLY!! i would be light headed from catching a nice 4.2lb with the way things have been lately. Guess thats why im not the second most viewed person on the internet (1st is Cindy Margolis i believe, Fish Chris trailing right behind)

.......I just meant "only a 14.2", as oposed the the 17 plus that it looked like when it first jumped. Believe me, a 14.2 is still a darn good one to me too !

BTW Brushpile, I wish I was trailing right behind Cindy Margolis :-) Speaking of which, I wonder if she likes to fish ? ;-)

Peace,

Fish

I don't know Chris,..there's a saying..."for every drop dead beautiful chick, there is a guy somewhere who is sick of her s*$@."  

don't know any big female largemouth that we'd say that about.  Stick to hunting the real trophies,lol!!

the same goes for lightningrod. I see him every where i turn.

Yea, but I'm lucky to catch a "4.2 lb Bass", much less a "14.2 lb Bass" :-?

I hear that lightin, some fish dont photograph well, usually nothing is like getting video or atually being there. But thats a great fish, wonder what it looked like in person expecially jumpin out of the water

fantastic

lol Hey Fish I know that T shirt! ;D

I would have to recommend against wearing a shirt like that, with a big ugly guy on it, for fear of scaring small children :-) .....but then again, Halloween is coming up ! :-) LOL
